Chicken Salpicon Recipes

Steps:

• Season chicken with garlic salt, black pepper, and paprika. Marinate for 15 minutes.
• Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Add garlic and saute until almost brown, about 1 minute. Add chicken and mix to keep garlic from burning. Add Worcestershire and liquid seasoning. Reduce heat and let simmer until chicken is almost no longer pink in the center, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in serrano pepper and simmer for another 2 minutes. Transfer to a serving dish.

Steps:

• Put the brisket in a large pot and fill with enough water to cover the meat by an inch. Add the onion quarters and 1/4 cup salt. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer partially covered until the brisket is very tender, 2 1/2 hours. Add more water if needed to keep the meat covered. Turn off the heat and let the brisket cool in the cooking liquid to room temperature. Drain the brisket, discard the water and cool completely.
• Meanwhile, prepare the vinaigrette by whisking the olive oil and vinegar in a medium bowl until well combined. Add the lime juice, red onion and oregano and whisk again. Season the vinaigrette with salt and pepper.
• Shred the brisket into a large bowl. Add the cucumbers, tomatoes, capers, cilantro and radishes and toss to combine. Add the vinaigrette and toss to coat. Season with additional salt and pepper if needed.
• To make the grilled tostadas: Heat a grill pan on the stovetop over medium-high heat. Place a corn tortilla onto the hot pan until the tortilla is crisp with a slight char. Cook for about 5 minutes each side. Scoop the shredded beef salad onto the grilled tostada and garnish with some avocado slices.

Steps:

• After boiling chicken allow to cool and cut into strips or bite size pieces.
• Combine all ingredients and mix well.
• I like to serve the salpicon in a tortilla bowl, lined with lettuce.
• This also makes a great salsa for eating on tortilla chips.

Steps:

• Sprinkle the tilapia with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Heat the oil in a large skillet over high heat until hot. Add the fish and cook, turning once, until golden and cooked through, about 10 minutes. Let the fish cool to warm, then shred with a fork.
• Put the shredded fish and the oil from the skillet in a large bowl and toss with the cilantro, onion, lime juice, Worcestershire, jalapeño, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Chill until ready to use.
• Toast the tortillas directly over a burner set on medium, turning, until blackened in spots. Stack the tortillas as toasted.
• Serve the tilapia salpicon with the tortillas, lettuce, sour cream and lime wedges.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
• Sprinkle kosher salt and 1 teaspoon black pepper over the fatty side of brisket. Spread tomato paste over entire brisket. Place brisket, fat-side up, in a heavy pot; pour in enough water to cover brisket. Add halved onion, carrot, celery, 1/2 of the cilantro, and garlic to the pot. Bring liquid to a boil. Cover pot with a lid or aluminum foil and transfer to oven.
• Bake in the preheated oven until brisket is very tender, about 6 hours.
• Blend chipotle peppers in adobo sauce in a a food processor until finely chopped. Add vinegar to peppers and continue processing; drizzle olive oil into mixture until smooth.
• Remove brisket from liquid and cool slightly. Slice meat across the grain into 2-inch slices; shred thoroughly with a fork.
• Combine shredded meat, chopped onion, tomato, remaining cilantro, and pepper mixture in a large bowl; season with salt and pepper. Serve meat mixture with corn tortillas and top meat with Monterey Jack cheese.

Steps:

• Toss chicken, vegetables, apple, raisins and olives in serving bowl.
• Add mayonnaise, combine, then gently salt and pepper to taste, remembering that your next step is to fold in the shoestring potatoes and you don't want it to be too salty--if you are serving later, I recommend that you add the shoestring potatoes right before you serve.
• Garnish with green olives and a few shoestring potatoes scattered on top.
• Prep time listed below assumes your ingredients are cooked, cooled and ready to mix--servings yielded depends on how hungry you are; 8 is a good guess.
